‘But there is a difference between recognising AI use and proving its use. So I tried an experiment. … I received 122 paper submissions. Of those, the Trojan horse easily identified 33 AI-generated papers. I sent these stats to all the students and gave them the opportunity to admit to using AI before they were locked into failing the class. Another 14 outed themselves. In other words, nearly 39% of the submissions were at least partially written by AI.‘

    Meant how the university of Cambridge does their tests. rather than year long exams and assignments being a fraction of your grade. the only grade that matters is that of the final yearly exam. I think it is the only one in the UK that does that. not sure how it works in the rest of the world, but I think that is rare. but likely the only AI proof system.

    IE, you can literally goof off the whole year, not even be in town, and if you show up for the exam and ace it you get a good grade.

      God that’s great. I’ve failed classes in Uni where I got As on all the tests, just because I didn’t do the homework >:0

        Classes like Calc 2,3, Thermo/fluid dynamics, chem classes etc never had required homework for me, just suggested. The only classes with required homework were engineering projects building something physical or programs I had to submit in C or what not. I suppose I had a writing course that required I turned in essays, but I don’t know how you’d get around that.
